I'm not sure why this would be happening. If you look at run-tests.sh,
https://gitlab.common-lisp.net/asdf/asdf/-/blob/master/test/run-tests.sh?ref_type=heads#L535-537
, the test script tests for GCL and should short-cut this exact test.
That error messages comes out of test/script-support.lisp, in
`compile-asdf-script`. I'd suggest you put some reader conditional
around that call to `leave-test` to quash failure and see how much
further you get.
Cheers,

GCL 2.7.1 was just recently released and I decided to see if asdf
could be compiled with this version. I had to make a small change in
uiop/os.lisp to use `system::chdir`, the internal symbol instead of
the external symbol. (Not sure if that's really correct, but it does
work from the repl.)
This seems to allow asdf.lisp to be compiled. The next step was
running `make l=gcl GCL=<path>/gcl-2.7.1/bin/gcl test`. However this
fails with the message:
Testsuite failed: ASDF compiled with unexpected full warnings
There are a few warnings from the compiler. However, I'd like to see
how far I can get without fixing the compiler warnings. Is that
possible?
I just don't want to spend a lot of time fixing compiler warnings if
there are more serious issues that are exposed by the testsuite.
